Inspector Byrnes is a man of pleasing adj
dress and suave manners. He weighs about
1855 pounds. He has a keen, piercing eye, md
Is an excellent judge of human nature. lie
has surrounded himself with a body of re-.
markedly ablo detectives. During the six
years OF Byrnes' inspectorship not a single
robbery, by q professional thief, has occurred
in the n~eighborhood OF Wall street. This is
due to the branch Office which he established
In that street Immediately after his appoint
ment to his present position. This branch
Office is connected by wire with every bank
Ing house and the different exchanges in the
lower part of the city. The rogues know
this, and fight shy Of the locality.
Perhaps the most important single factor
In tic Identification and apprehension OF
criminals is the Rogues' Gallery, which con.
tains portraits of every criminal Of note in
this country and Canada. Most persons who
go to see the sKogues' Gallery'' are surprised,
and even disappointed when they are shown
q compact cabinet, occupying very little
space. But it contains 1000 photographs.
Inspector Bylnes at once saw that the former

Of the most important aids to the service. He,
therefore, ut once set about devising an ar

Detective Sergeant Thomas F. Adams, who
is the inventor of the Rogues' Gallery cabinet

is taken to be photographed. The ~instanta-

the Metropolis-Byrnes' Fact In Times
of Emergency.
No stranger visiting the city of New York
considers that he has thoroughly "done the
town" until he has paidta visit To police head
quarters, 500 Mulberry street. What most
interests the visitor there is the detective bn-
reau, which is under the immediate personal
supervision of Inspector Thomas Byrnes.
Thomas Byrnes first saw tho light in the
Fifth ward Of New York city, June Is, 1912.
He was at an early age apprenticed to a gas
filter. and after getting tout OF his time" con-
tinued to work at his trade until Dec. 10,
1858, when he was appointed a patrolman Of
the Metropolitan police, and was assigned to
duty in the Fifteenth precinct. He did duty
in the Fifteenth, Twenty first and Twenty
third for twelve years.. at the end OF which
time he had risen through the vari-
ous grades to the captaincy of the
Fifteenth precinct. He was appointed
chief Of the detective bureau March l2, 1880,
and at once proceeded to revolutionize things
i'll that department. The result has been
good, and the bureau has risen from n very
low grade TO a position that is admitted to be
very iieai the top.

We call the attention Of the rusi-
ness men Of this city to the value Of
the MESSENGER as an advertising me-
dium. There are about 5 900 colorcd
people in this city, and nearly all of
them are to some extent influenced by
this paper. VIII it not pay you to
ask for share of their patronage
through their own organ? The colored
people spend not less than $4,000
week here for clothing, groceries,
&C., and their trade is principally
cesh. The MESSENGER advises and
urges its readers to patronize the
stores that advertise with us. Several
of our best houses have found it ex-
pedient to keep their advertisement
in our columns.
THE MESSENGER reaches large
class of people who spend much money
that cannot be reached by any other
paper in the city. Is not this worth
your consideration ? Our rates are
very low, and it will certainly pay
you to advertise in the MESSENGER.
We have a good circulation in the
city and county, as well as all the
neighboring towns.
Our policy and politics are not .di-
rectcd to suit the business men, but
our readers. If our politics were

THE POLITICAL OUTLOOK.

1t is now less than one year when
the American people will be called
upon again to vote for President.
Congressman, State officers and poll
ticians generally are earnestly at work
in the interest of their respective par
ties. The elections just held in the
North and West are looked upon as
very positive index to the battle in
1888. The great State of New York
is to be the centre of attraction and
the principal battle ground, and while
each party is trying to figure its own
chances favorable to carry New York !;
each is trying to show that it can sue
coed without it.
The Negro of the South has moth
ing to do with electfhg President of
the United States. While the Negro
is republican and largely in the ma
jority in several of these States, they
are all put down as solid for the demo-
cratic nominee. 1t is not for us to
discuss the business of that here. Can
the republicans carry New York or a
sufficient number of other northern
States to elect their candidate that
is the great question. In our our
opinion the chances are against them
for carrying New York, but Indiana,
Connecticut and New jersey may be
carried by the republicans and in fact
it looks much like a solid North
against less solid South. The bloody
shirt and the rebel flag makes votes
for the republicans in the North and
they do not fail to take advantage of
it. 1t was said by Southern news
papers that Foraker would be beaten
in Ohio on the rebel flag fight, but
Ohio gave Foraker $4,000 majority
on a light vote. The great principles
of the republican party are the princi-
pies for nation to stand and live up
on. If the people of Ohio did not
wish to vote for Foraker, they voted
for him because he represented the
principles of a great party. truth and
justice. Ohio is safe.
But is the nation safe Tariff re-
form legislation is of great Importance
to the republican and democratic par
ties; the prohibition and labor parties
are menace to them also, but the
probabilities are that the republicans
will succeed in electing their candidate
for President next year if they put up
a good and strong man.
There is possibility for success in
North Carolina, if the republicans
will lay aside their own petty differ
ences and present solid front to the
enemy. The republicans of this State
have not shown a solid front for a
number of years, but to-day each Of
the rival factions show a disposition
to harmonize and carry the banner to
victory. The principles of the rcpub-
lican party are well understood and
the issues should be well outlined and
firmly sustained.
